Founded in 1883, the St. Augustine Historical Society originated as an informal gathering of local individuals interested in natural history. Known by a variety of names, the St. Augustine Historical Society officially became known as such in 1953. Since its inception over 130 years ago, the Society has fostered interest in, and an appreciation of, the history and culture of St. Augustine, St. Johns County, and North Florida. In doing so, the Society has acquired, restored, preserved, and maintained multiple notable local historical structures.
The Gonzales-Alvarez House (The Oldest House), Tovar House, the Fernandez-Llambias House, the Segui Kirby Smith House (The Research Library), the Webb Building, and the Dunham Building all remain key holdings and demonstrate the distinct and significant periods of St. Augustine’s long and storied past. Both The Gonzales-Alvarez House (The Oldest House) and the Tovar House host museums dedicated to the history of St. Augustine and its people, while the Segui Kirby Smith House is home to the unique collections of the Research Library.
To this day, the St. Augustine Historical Society remains an important aspect of the community. Free public programming, collaboration with other community organizations, and annual publications of the academic journal El Escribano all serve as a means of fostering interest for generations to come in the storied past of the nation’s Oldest City.
The Oldest House is open daily 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Tours run every half hour. Reservations for tours are not required.
